1999 Collection Heavy Silk Tie, Blue and Red JD08

A journey to the origins of sartorial myth. In September 1999, Maurizio Talarico launched his very first tie collection, defining the codes of an elegance that would captivate the highest institutional figures. Today, to celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the Maison's founding, we reopen our historical archives with the 1999 Collection: an exclusive re-edition of the most iconic patterns from that era.

As was customary in those years, this tie is made from the finest heavy silk (with jacquard weaves or antique prints), capable of imparting that full-bodied feel and drape rich in heritage charm. Each piece is embellished with an exclusive celebratory label and is the result of 45 minutes of expert hand-stitching in Italy. An authentic piece of history to wear and collect.

Style Tips

The use of heavy silk gives this collection a strong character, ideal for those who love classic "Power Dressing":

• Heritage Charm: Whatever the chosen variant (from regimental to geometric patterns), the substantial nature of this tie demands well-structured suits, such as worsted wool, pinstripe, or flannel suits.

• The Sculptural Knot: The significant weight of 90s heavy silk creates a rich and voluminous knot. We recommend a classic four-in-hand knot, tied snugly to create the characteristic central "dimple", avoiding double knots which would be excessively thick.

• Collector's Detail: The celebratory label makes this tie a true connoisseur's item, also perfect as a prestigious gift.

Care Instructions

• How to Untie It: At the end of the day, never pull the narrow end through the knot. Always untie it by gently reversing the movements used to tie it.

• Rest: Allow it to rest, loosely rolled or hung, for at least 24 hours. This will allow the heavy silk fibers to naturally relax.

• Washing and Ironing: Strictly professional dry cleaning. Never iron the tie flat with a domestic iron: heat and pressure would ruin the sartorial edges and the three-dimensional structure of the fabric.

Personalization Service

Make your tie even more intimate and distinctive. We offer a personalization service with hand embroidery of your initials.

• Shipping Note: As this is a bespoke haute couture piece, personalization requires approximately 10 working days of artisanal production time before shipping.
